Amid the growing debate over artificial intelligence (AI) models, Google has reportedly launched its AI assistant Gemini’s mobile app in India on Tuesday. With the new update, the Gemini app will now be available in 9 Indian languages, supporting English, Marathi, Tamil, Hindi, Kannada, Malayalam, Bengali, Gujarati, Telugu and Urdu.
The app will enable the user to type, talk, or even add an image to get their needed assistance.
Sundar Pichai, CEO of Alphabet and Google posted on X (social media platform), “We’re also adding these local languages to Gemini Advanced, plus other new features, and launching Gemini in Google Messages in English."
As per the company, Gemini Advanced users in India could access the power of Gemini 1.5 Pro, its most advanced model, in nine languages.
“Additionally, we’re unlocking new features in Gemini Advanced such as new data analysis capabilities and file uploads, and also launching the ability to chat with Gemini in Google Messages, starting in English,” said Amar Subramanya, Vice President of engineering, Gemini Experiences.
On iOS, Gemini access is rolling out directly from the Google app over the next few weeks.
With a 1 million token context window, Gemini Advanced now has the longest context of any widely available consumer chatbot worldwide.
“We’re also introducing Gemini in Google Messages to give you another way to collaborate with Gemini on your phone,” said the company.
